Bleacher Report

By Harry McCracken

At Bleacher Report, the sports reporting isn't performed by a tiny staff of full-time journalists  it's done by thousands of fan-contributors, which is why it feels so deep and so passionate. The standard of quality is markedly higher than at some community-created news hubs, where "citizen journalist" can be a synonym for "poorly paid amateur." Like a sports-themed variant of the Huffington Post, the site has a penchant for wacky lists and sideshows. Many of them, like "50 Bold Predictions for the Rest of the MLB Season," are nicely done, not just fluffy filler.
